Four picks unsigned

Now that the offseason program has been completed, the Texans still need to sign four of their nine draft choices — cornerback Kareem Jackson (first round), running back Ben Tate (second), tight end Garrett Graham (fourth) and receiver Dorin Dickerson (seventh).

Guard Shelley Smith, selected in the sixth round from Colorado State, is the latest pick to sign. He received a four-year contract worth $1.894 million.

Comings and goings

Griffith, who has played for three teams in eight seasons, and Williams, who played in four preseason games with Minnesota last season, took part in the Texans' minicamp on a trial basis. Fine spent the last two seasons with the Bills.
